Mabel Poblet

Una simple palabra, from the series Desapariencia, 2015

Mixed media on PVC, 50 cm. diameter


  • Cool and beautifully done as her work is, it quickly consecrated her in the art market as a renowned Cuban artist despite her declared youth. That is why her entire work can be understood like effluvia of a pristine and undermined pleasure, since in it the haste before the need of satiate appetites has been surpassed by the aftertaste and the suspension of impulses, of the senses, of the faltering moderate earthquake of the bristly skin, of the palpitation. Hedonism in the summit of postmodernism. Hedonism instead of humanity.
  • Esta obra prescinde de la reciedumbre de la ortogonalidad para premiarnos con la perfecta sensualidad del círculo. Es una suerte de domo, a la manera renacentista, solo que en vez de una escena bíblica, guarda en su interior la procacidad y fertilidad de la más sutil de las carnes. ¿Acaso no ha sido la boca arco de la traición, la palabra y el amor?
  • La obra destaca además por su refinada visualidad, por su alta densidad estética, muy relacionada con el arte conceptual, el minimalismo y el arte pop.
  • We may affirm, without fear to make a mistake of proud, that Mabel Poblet is our Warhol. Cool and beautifully done as her work is, it quickly consecrated her in the art market as a renowned Cuban artist despite her declared youth.

How tender and daring the visual provocations of our young artist can be. Very related with pop art, the present work stands out for its refined appearance. Beside, the format is sui generis regarding Mabel’s modus operandi. These lips spare us from the strength of the orthogonality to reward us with the perfect sensuality of the circle. The piece has a resemblance to a dome, to the renaissance manner, although, instead of a biblical scene, they keep in their interior the impudence and fertility of the subtlest of the flesh. Has not it perhaps been the mouth arch of betrayal, word and love?
